I Can't Stand the Sight

I Can't Stand the Sight

A Poem by Requs

When the success of others mix with joy
Their giddy success strangles my stress
When the crocodile gets slaughtered by the gazelle
I….I…

Their are times that just make you swallow
Swallow the largest stones
Their can be times that stab hope
This is when all hope is lost
Fading away in many beautiful slowing tones
Racing to grab them back
With immense thought
Inevitably bound to give up
Racing…a race

 When I see through lucks devious design
Beyond its disguised exterior
The feeling of disgust fills to the front of my mouth
Like long hotel hallways with silent horrors

When I see two lovers together
I can't stand the sight
When what I want, I see others get
With ease no doubt, I go on a inner mind homicide
When I see two males in love with one another
I can't stand the sight
When I see my desires exploited by some other
 I can't see my logics torch lamp light
..and it's a cave with eternal night

When I try so hard, or be myself, its not enough
When I show my strong, vulnerable, or weak
Its not what others think to need
When I show how developed I have become
Others dismiss with cruel high caliber vocal guns
When I see ignorance, when I am ignored,
When I am glowing gold and get disowned
I can't stand the smell
The thought
The facts
I can' t stand cultural existence
I just can't stand the sight of it all

wow. i wouldn't change a thing, but there were a few grammar errors. it flows so well, and the diction is PERFECT i really like the raw emotion behind it - it's honest poetry, not poetry written without soul in it.

Hah. I like this. Except for the occasional typo I wouldn't change a thing. It was just... wow. But then again, i might just think so because I can relate. But I'm sure other can too. Unless of course I'm a crazy, which is always a possiblity. Haha. Good poem, that's my point, and I'll stop now because If I don't I never will. And that will get annoying fast.

Point being, I like the poem. And good job with writing it.
